How to Get a Gun in War Dogs

Getting your first weapon in War Dogs is one of the most essential steps to prepare for combat. This guide will walk you through the entire process of acquiring a gun at the spawn point, selecting the right ammunition, and purchasing the necessary equipment to carry your loadout.

Finding the Vendor at Spawn

When you start War Dogs, you’ll find yourself at a spawn point where a vendor is located. This vendor is your gateway to acquiring weapons and gear. Look for the gun icon displayed at the vendor’s location—this indicates where you can access primary weapons.

Approach the vendor and select the primary weapon option to begin browsing available firearms.

Selecting Your Primary Weapon

Once you’ve accessed the primary weapon menu, you’ll see multiple options to choose from. The vendor offers a free weapon option if you’re working with a limited budget, or you can cycle through different gun types to find one that suits your playstyle.

When viewing each weapon, you can see important details such as:

Whether the gun is semi-automatic or fully automatic

The type of ammunition it uses

Whether the weapon supports attachments

For this guide, we’ll select a basic gun option to demonstrate the process.

Choosing Your Magazine and Ammunition

After selecting your primary weapon, the next step is to choose your magazine. The standard magazine option holds 20 rounds and is a reliable choice for most players.

You’ll then need to select the specific ammunition type that matches your chosen weapon. Click on the ammo option to confirm your selection.

Purchasing a Backpack for Storage

Before finalizing your loadout, you’ll need somewhere to store your weapons and ammunition. If you don’t already have a backpack, you can purchase a free backpack with six inventory slots.

Keep in mind that some items take up multiple inventory slots, so plan your loadout accordingly to ensure everything fits within your backpack’s capacity.

Finalizing Your Loadout and Making the Purchase

Once you’ve selected your primary weapon, magazine, ammunition, and backpack, review your complete loadout to ensure everything is correct. Press the back button to view your final loadout summary.

When you’re satisfied with your selections, simply press buy to complete the transaction. Your weapon and gear will now be added to your inventory, and you’re ready to engage in combat.

Summary

Acquiring a gun in War Dogs is a straightforward process that involves visiting the spawn vendor, selecting a primary weapon, choosing appropriate ammunition and a magazine, purchasing storage space, and finalizing your loadout. By following these steps, you’ll be fully equipped and ready for your first battle in War Dogs.
